Covering the most creative period of this premier designer s output, Jeff Zimmerman: Glass Light Space documents how he has pushed the boundaries of glassmaking for more than three decades. Trained in classical Venetian glass technique, Zimmerman creates sculptural objects and installations that actively engage with the experience of color, light, and the natural environment. This book demonstrates Zimmerman s singular ability to coax the unique properties of glass to emphasize the aesthetic and emotional experience of functional objects, inspiring a generation of collectors, glass artists, and lighting designers.
